last night i was driving home from work when i got some straem from under the hood, i stopped and looked to find there was the noise of hissing and steam comming from behind the motor (2.2 gt) on the passenger side, is there a heater hose back there? what could it be do you think? none of the guages read hot so i hope its not a head gasket or something, stressing myself out over this as i cant afford a huge bill right before christmas...thanks.

there is a coolant hose on the passenger side. perhaps even a heater hose for coolant. but then again even if it was that you would be loosing coolant. You can most likely tell its a head gasket because if you look in your coolant it will look mixed with oil and vice versa. But hissing sound sounds more like coolant because of the water and because oil won't make that loud sound. Id check for coolant leaks.
